Provides Maximum Living Area
Designed by architect William
Ralston, of Toronto, this frame
bungalow has a floor area of under
1,000 square feet but still features
good internal circulation. The
'architect has succeeded in produc-
ing an interesting interior design
by grouping the bathroom, wash-
room, storage closets and hall to
separate the living and sleeping
areas.
The large bedroom can be built
as two rooms or separated by a
folding divider ,as planned by the
architect. The pass-through from
the kitchen to the living -dining
room is a step saver which the
housewife will appreciate.
The total floor area is 925 square
feet and the exterior dimensions
are 30 feet, eight inches, by 30
feet, eight' triches; excluding car
port. Working drawing for the
house, Design 297, may be obtain=
ed from Central Mortgage and
Housing Corporation.

• ADVENTURE .IN BUILDING
C�refully As embled -Forms
Insure Even Foundation Wall
(This is the sixth in a series
of articles by Central Mortgage
and Housing Corporation; Fed •
-
eral housing agency, on build-
ing a house).
Concrete for foundation walls is
poured in forms built of sheathing
Lumber, plywood or steel panels.
Panels are now more. commonly
used because they can be put up
more quickly and can be used
many times.
When the panels are erected the
vertical points should be flush,' that
is, the edge of one panel should not
jut out past the other. Uneven
panel joints produce ridges on the
wall surface. If the panel forms
are assembled carelessly and there
are pronounced irregularities,no
amount of parging later' on will
produce an even wall surface,
Basement window frames are
attached to the inside of the outer
panels before the inside panels are
set up. They must be fitted firmly
in place. If wooden frames are
used they should be- well braced
from within to keep them from
twisting out of alignment with the
weight of the concrete.
The foundation forms must be
kept -securely in position to main-
tain the correct wall thickness
throughout. There are various way
throughout. There are - -various
ways of doing this. They can be
tied together with heavy wire at
regular intervals, using Wooden
blocks or spreaders to keep pro-
per spacing. These spreaders must
be removed when the concrete goes
into the forms. If the builder is •
using one of the newer type com-
bination tie -rod and spreaders .this
operation is not necessary, since.
the rod remains in the concrete.'
Sometimes the entire rough floor
.of the house is assembled before
the foundation is 'poured.-- The
flooring provides a platform from
which the concrete carriers can
dump the concrete mix into the
forms. If the builder uses this
method the ends of the joists sup-
porting the sub -floor should be
treated with a wood preservative
beforehand, as they will after-
wards be buried in .the concrete.

HURON COUNTY FEDERATION NEVI'S
By CARL HEMINGWAY
The marketing, of farm products
is the popular topic for discussion
anis it is important that farmers
know not only the -facts but also
the implications.
I was very interested in a quo-
tation .given from one of our cur-
rent Ancient history books by Mr.
James Haggerty, at- the Elma
township Federation -of ' Agricul-
ture meetiii'.. February 18. "It is
only when forces are equal that the
question of rights arisen. When
forees are unequal the strdng does
what he, can and the weak suffers
what he must."
Could this apply -to hog market-
ing? In former years the strong
packing corporation did what. he
could, namely, gained control of
the hogs by bonusing the weaker
trucker, and the trucker, stronger
than the individual and protected
.by P.V.C. licensing,- gathered up
the hogs from the weaker individ-
ual farmer who suffered what he
must. There was no question of
rights. This was just accepted as
the way things were done.
Now that the Ontario hog pro-
ducers has become strong bargain-
ing force iri the sale)of hogs, the
question of rights becomes a vital
issue. In this case the point of
,contention is, who shall have the
right to allocate the supply of
hogs?
, The opposition has been imply-
ing that the Hog Producers' Mar-
keting Board has the sole power
to' allocate hags to the various
packers. This is not true. Since
the Marketing Board must always
sell inthe best interests of the
producer, any packing plant can
take' over the right to allocate the
desired number of hogs to itself
simply by bidding the higher price,
It is only in the case of identical
bids that the board. has any power
of allocation,.. In this ease, the
board is obligated to sell the hogs
on some other consideration in the
best interests of the producer, The
packer, who den process quickest,
who is closest to the 'Mint of as-
seinbly, or who consistently returns
favorably dressing percentages, or
who will sell immediately into the
trade rather than the one who is
storing pork, will get the .hogs.
The fact that the matter of right
has come up would seem- to prove
that farmers now have equal
strength in the market place as
far as hogs are concerned.
Marketing of beef was also dis-
cussed, and while the past doesn't
seem too bad, there was definite
fear expressed for the future. It is
rumoured that ohe of the wealth-
lest financiers in Canada is about
to set up a 5,000 -head cattle feed-
ing station in Huron County. He
has refuse from another enter-
prise that will supply him with
cheap fattening ration; he has
shares in the packing industry,
and controls a large retail chain.
With a good market for the reftise
and a good profit on processing
and retailing, he doesn't have to
worry about a profit on his feed-
ing. The only answer for the'farm-
er is co-op marketing, processing
apd retailing.

of 'of' church news which.
appeared in today's newspapers
should be on the advertisement
pages, Rev, A. C. 'b'orreSi,,.;.editor
of the United Church Observer,
told the annual convention of the
Ontario Weekly Newspapers Asso-
ciation at Hamilton recently.
The thought-provoking address of
the much -quoted editor of The
United Church Observer, as re-
ported in The Hamilton Spectator,
was, in part, as follows:
Some of the "most difficult peo-
ple in the world" with whom an
editor has to contend, he said,
were preachers.
"They are sensitiv• they jump
on you when you ma a mistake
and accuse you o bias and
prejudice," Mr. Forr st declar-
ed.
One city newsman claimed that,
over a long career the only people
who ever accused him of being un-
fair were ministers of the gospel.
."I think you treat clergymen
with kid. gloves . . , and -""With
more respect than we ought to
.get."
Editors appeared to lean over
backwards in order not to be ac-
cused of having religious bias or
prejudice, Mr. Forrest declared.
"Most religious material in the
press bores • me," continued Mr.
Forrest,
"Often, it is trivial. Seldom does
it seem to get over the surface."
Usually the writer—and editor—
were careful not to 'offend anyone.
"They are anxious td'piease ev-
eryone . . and the writing is
dull," declared the minister.
"Some of the smartest writing
appears on the sports pages," Mr.
Forrest continued. "It is often of.
better quality than that on the re-
ligious pages.
He --had heard theologians say:
"Study. the sports pages for ideas."
A survey conducted by a lead-
ing New York. City newspaper re-
vealed that, for housewives, re-
legious items ranked first in in-
terest.
Torlc
For men, they came fourth .af,
..ter sports. finanee,-and polities.
There had, said Mr.. Forrest,
been a tremendous increase in the
circulation of religious papers and
`journals. •
An Anglican newspaper in Can-
ada, previously conventional with
a circulation of 7,000, had been
taken fiver by a young ,priest.
Assisted by laymen, he had con-
verted the paper into a monthly
tablpid—and its circulation had
rocketed to 275,000. '
Mr. Forrest called upon the edi-
tors to provide more interpretive
reporting of church news.
"Don't just say how mucn was
made at the. bazaar , or who'
poured the tea . . . and if you
record ,a certain person sang a.
solo beautifully, don't forget to
point out that she has been sing-
ing the solo beautifully for the
past 40 years."
He called upon the editors to
"stick their necks out" on mat-
ters of public interest; and, once
in a while, on church matters.
"Write up a sermon and say
what is wrong with it;" Mr. For-
revst asserted. -"Examine the,
preacher's ideas."
The editors, he said, should be
as objective and critical of the
preacher's sermon as they would
of a play or a singer.
"It needs someone with the
courage to treat the clergyman,
in his preaching, as an artist."
Interpretive reporting done this
way could serve a valuable—and
helpful—purpose.
People in Canada—superficially
at any rate—cared about religion,
he maintained,'
"Religion has a tremendous
influence," said Mr. Forrest.
For this reason, editors and
clergymen should work together
for 'the good of the community.
"Editors and priests and minis-
ters have a lot in common," said
Mr. Forrest. "Each shares the
same ideals and concerns for his
community:"
